This retrospective study analyzed postoperative in-hospital analgesic consumption in 162 adults undergoing colorectal surgery for endometriosis at Tenon University Hospital (Paris) from 2019–2021, comparing robotic versus conventional laparoscopy and examining opioid versus non-opioid use. Patients received a standardized stepwise regimen (systematic acetaminophen, then ketoprofen or nefopam as needed, with tramadol and morphine for resistant pain), and analgesic intake was extracted from prescription/delivery records. The authors found that surgical type influenced acetaminophen and nefopam consumption, robotic surgery was associated with higher total tramadol use than conventional laparoscopy, and analgesic prescribing shifted over time with tramadol markedly decreasing while ketoprofen increased by 2021; only history of abdominal surgery and operating year were independently associated with opioid use. A major caveat is that patients were not randomized to robotic versus conventional laparoscopy (assignment depended on robotic theatre availability), and the study reflects medication consumption during hospitalization. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically evaluates hospital opioid versus non-opioid analgesic consumption after colorectal endometriosis surgery.

Abstract

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to analyze postoperative consumption of analgesics during hospitalization following colorectal surgery for endometriosis. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study at Tenon University Hospital, Paris, France from February 2019 to December 2021. Results One hundred sixty-two patients underwent colorectal surgery: 89 (55%) by robotic and 73 (45%) by conventional laparoscopy. The type of procedure had an impact on acetaminophen and nefopam consumed per day: consumption for colorectal shaving, discoid resection and segmental resection was, respectively, 2(0.5), 2.1(0.6), 2.4(0.6) g/day (p = 10 − 3), and 25(7), 30(14), 31(11) mg/day (p = 0.03). The total amount of tramadol consumed was greater following robotic surgery compared with conventional laparoscopy (322(222) mg vs 242(292) mg, p = 0.04). We observed a switch in analgesic consumption over the years: tramadol was used by 70% of patients in 2019 but only by 7.1% in 2021 (p < 10 − 3); conversely, ketoprofen was not used in 2019, but was consumed by 57% of patients in 2021 (p < 10 − 3). A history of abdominal surgery (OR = 0.37 (0.16–0.78, p = 0.011) and having surgery in 2020 rather than in 2019 (OR = 0.10 (0.04–0.24, p < 10 − 3 )) and in 2021 than in 2019 (OR = 0.08 (0.03–0.20, p < 10 − 3 )) were the only variables independently associated with the risk of opioid use. Conclusion We found that neither clinical characteristics nor intraoperative findings had an impact on opioid consumption in this setting, and that it was possible to rapidly modify in-hospital analgesic consumption modalities by significantly reducing opioid consumption in favor of NSAIDS or Nefopam.

Endometriosis colorectal surgery post-operative pain analgesic consumption opioids Figures Figure 1 Introduction Endometriosis is a well-known cause of pelvic pain affecting around 10% of women of reproductive age which represents at least 190 million women worldwide (1). Endometriosis is also a risk factor of infertility, quality of life alteration (1), and chronic consumption of opioid and non-opioid analgesics (2). Women with endometriosis are three times more likely to use opioids for uncontrolled pain than patients without endometriosis (3). Depending on the study, 42% (2) to 62% (4) of patients with endometriosis use opioids. Moreover, in the postoperative period following resection of endometriosis lesions, a threefold increased risk of postoperative opioid consumption has been observed (5) On one hand, there is the risk that exposure to opioids during hospital stay, particularly after surgery, can lead to dependence afterwards (6,7) and, on the other hand, persistent pain in the immediate postoperative period may lead to longer hospital stays, readmission, and longer recovery times (8). Robotic surgery improves the surgeon's vision and facilitates nerve sparing techniques, and had been shown to reduce opioid consumption in benign hysterectomy (9). However, no data are available in the specific context of colorectal resection for endometriosis. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare postoperative consumption of analgesics during the hospital stay of patients who had undergone colorectal resection for endometriosis by robotic or conventional laparoscopy. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study including patients who had undergone colorectal surgery for endometriosis at Tenon University Hospital, Expert Centre in Endometriosis (GRC-6, C3E), Paris, France, from February 2019 (corresponding to the endowment of a robot from our hospital) to December 2021. Institutional review board approval was obtained, and all patients gave their written informed consent to participate in the study (CEROG 2012-GYN-10-03). Patients We included symptomatic patients >18 years of age scheduled for colorectal surgery after failure of medical treatment and/or with infertility. Colorectal endometriosis was assessed by transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and rectal echo-endoscopy (REE) using previously published criteria (10–12). The robotic and conventional laparoscopy approaches were exclusively performed depending on the availability of the robotic theatre: none of the patients were allocated to robotic or conventional laparoscopy based on preoperative characteristics. At surgery, the endometriosis stage was evaluated according to the ASRM classification. Bowel endometriosis surgery was performed as previously described (13) and associated procedures including adnexal surgery (ovarian cystectomy or salpingo-oophorectomy), resection of the uterosacral ligament, torus uterinus, or parametrium, partial colpectomy, hysterectomy, ureterolysis, and ureteral reimplantation were performed when required. After surgery, the patients were hospitalized in our gynecological surgery department. Acetaminophen (Sanofi, Paris, France) was systematically administered every 6 hours for the first 24 hours according to our standardized analgesic protocol. Patients with resistant pain were given ketoprofen 50mg (VIATRIS SANTE, Lyon, France) or nefopam ((VIATRIS SANTE, Lyon, France) every 6 hours if the pain was rated at below 7/10 on the visual analogue scale (VAS), or in combination if the pain was rated at over 7/10. Tramadol 50mg (ARROW, Lyon, France) was given if the pain was still resistant. Finally, oral morphine sulfate 10mg (ETHYPHARM, Saint cloud, France) or intravenous morphine chlorhydrate 3mg (LABORATOIRE RENAUDIN, Itxassou, France) was prescribed every 4 hours for patients whose pain remained resistant to these treatments with a VAS above 7/10, with the objective of reducing the score to under 3/10. Data about analgesic consumption was collected through our medical prescription and delivery software: Orbis (Agfa Healthcare, Mortsel, Belgium). Morphine consumption was converted to oral morphine equivalents using the guidelines published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (14). Postoperative complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification system as minor (grade I-II) or major (grade IIIA and IIIB-IV) 22 (15). Statistical analysis The population was divided into two groups according to the surgical approach, i.e., robotic (robotic group) or conventional (conventional group) laparoscopy. Patients were also categorized according to the type of analgesics they consumed, i.e., opioids or non-opioid analgesics. Univariate analysis was performed using the Student’s t test for normally distributed data and the Chi Square test for categorical data. The Wilcoxon test was used for continuous variables and Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables. All reported p-values were 2-sided. Significant difference was denoted when p<0.05. All statistical analysis was performed using commercially available software (RStudio Team (2020). RStudio: Integrated Development for R. RStudio, PBC, Boston, MA URL http://www.rstudio.com). Results Epidemiologic characteristics and surgical findings The study population was composed of 162 patients undergoing colorectal surgery for bowel endometriosis between February 2019 and December 2021. Eighty-nine patients (55%) underwent robotic laparoscopy (robotic group), and seventy-three (45%) conventional laparoscopy (conventional group). For 142 patients (142/162, 87%), pain was part of the surgical indication. The epidemiological characteristics of the population are depicted in Table 1.

There was no difference in the ASRM score or the digestive procedure (rectal shaving, discoid, or segmental resection) between the robotic and conventional groups. Similarly, surgical procedures associated with colorectal resection did not differ between the groups except for a higher frequency of JJ stents use in the conventional group compared with the robotic group: 16% (12/73) versus 4.5% (4/89), p=0.011. Finally, the operating time was longer for the robotic group: 200 versus 251 minutes (p=0.003). Table 2 presents the surgical findings for both groups.

Of these, 11/39 (28%) were Clavien-Dindo classification grade I, 18/39 (46%) were grade II, 5/39 (13%) were grade IIIA, 3/39 (8%) grade IIIB, and 2/39 (5%) were grade IV. The general characteristics of the subgroup of patients that experienced a complication was comparable to those who did not. However, in terms of surgical findings, the patients that experienced a postoperative complication had more colpectomy (15/39 vs 24/123, p=0.016), temporary diverting stomas (9/39 vs 13/123, p=0.047), and drainage (34/39 vs 83/123, p=0.017). These patients also had a longer hospital stay (p<10 -3 ). Analgesic consumption Acetaminophen was the most frequent analgesic consumed during hospitalization (158/162, 98%) with a mean (SD) of 2.2 (0.6) g/day for 5.2 (3) days on average. The four patients who did not take acetaminophen also refused all other analgesics during their hospitalization. Ketoprofen was used by 38/162 (23%) patients with a mean (SD) of 83 (32) mg/day for 3.1 (1.9) days on average. Nefopam was used by 98/162 (60%) patients with a mean (SD) of 29 (11) mg/day for 2.5 (1.6) days on average. Tramadol was used by 58/162 (36%) patients with a mean (SD) of 82 (40) mg/day for 3.2 (2.1) days on average.

It also impacted the consumption of nefopam with, respectively, 25 (7), 30 (14), and 31 (11) mg per day (p=0.03). On the other hand, no impact on ketoprofen (p=0.6), tramadol (p=0.5) or morphine (p=0.6) use was noted between patients with and without postoperative complications. Table 4 shows the consumption of analgesics for the robotic and conventional groups. Among the tramadol users, more tramadol was consumed in the robotic group than in the conventional group (322 (222) mg vs 242 (292) mg, p=0.04)), with a tendency for longer use in the robotic group (3.7 (2.2) vs 2.7 (1.9) days, p=0.08)).

Figure 1 shows the changes in consumption of the different analgesics according to the year. Patients consuming ketoprofen were more likely to use nefopam and tramadol (p=10 -3 ), whereas patients consuming tramadol were more likely to use morphine (p=0.02). Factors associated with an increased risk of opioid use Univariable and multivariable linear regression analysis of the consumption of any opioid is presented in Table 5.

We observed that surgical procedure did not impact opioid consumption. However, during the period a shift in analgesic use was note with an increased consumption of anti-inflammatory drugs and nefopam while tramadol consumption was divided by 10 in 3 years. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the modalities of consumption of postoperative analgesics in a large cohort of women operated on for colorectal endometriosis. As previously described, this is a challenging setting because colorectal endometriosis represents the most severe form of endometriosis and is the source of the most severe postoperative complications (16,17). Our complication rate is in agreement with previous reports: 13% of Clavien-Dindo grade IIIA, 8% grade IIIB, and 5% of grade IV (18). This relatively high complication rate can be explained by the incidence of some surgical risk factors such as a high rate of colpectomy, temporary diverting stoma, intra-operative JJ stent use, and ureteral or bladder resection (19,20). Moreover, as previously published for bowel cancer surgery, the high incidence of drainage in our series was associated with a risk of postoperative complications underlining the need to avoid systematic drainage (21,22). In our study, the surgical approach –robotic or conventional laparoscopy– had no impact on the likelihood of being exposed to an opioid during hospitalization. However, in patients using tramadol preoperatively, robotic surgery increased the total amount consumed linked to longer postoperative use. Our results are partially in agreement with those of previous studies showing no difference in analgesic consumption between robotic vs conventional laparoscopy (9). However, our data contrast with the results of Mangalath et al (23) reporting lower analgesic use during the first postoperative 24 hours following robotic surgery. This apparent discrepancy can be explained by the limited sample size of Mangalath et al’s study which only included 24 patients in the robotic group, after exclusion of four, and 24 patients in the laparoscopic group, after exclusion of 37. Beyond the surgical approach, postoperative analgesic consumption should be analyzed in the specific context of endometriosis. Time-to-diagnosis for patients with endometriosis can be as long as 12 years during which time they often experience considerable pain (1). They have often been subjected to medical wandering and multiple surgeries, and can suffer from anxiety and depressive disorders (24), all of which have a negative impact on social and familial relationships as well as causing stigma. This explains the high preoperative incidence of analgesic consumption in this population (25). Our data focus on the in-hospital postoperative period and only on drugs that were both prescribed and actually taken by the patients. The first 2 days after colorectal surgery are the most painful (26), and this therefore represents a crucial moment for analgesic consumption: the likelihood of chronic opioid use increases with each additional day of medication supplied starting with the third day after surgery (27). In our study, the average duration was 2.06 days (2.09) for morphine consumption and 3.22 (2.09) days for tramadol for a mean hospital stay of 1 week. This means that very few patients were using opioids by the end of their hospital stay, and that there is no need to prescribe them at discharge. This study also showed that it was possible to radically change the prescription habits of all the practitioners working in our center. The example of tramadol is the most striking. Tramadol is a strong contributor to the risk of future opioid addiction (27) and was the first opioid analgesic cited in a 2018 survey of problematic use both among substance abusers and in the general population for pain management conducted by the French National Drug Safety Agency and published in February 2019 (28). Problematic use included dependence with signs of withdrawal occurring even when taken at recommended doses and over a short period of time, and leading to persistent intake by patients who no longer experience pain. The report highlighted that tramadol was also the first analgesic involved in deaths related to the use of analgesics, ahead of morphine. Following this report and recommendations to restrict the indications for tramadol prescription, we have been able to divide its consumption in our hospital by a factor of 10 in 3 years. Opioid treatments have been replaced by the non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) ketoprofen and nefopam. By 2021, two out of three patients were receiving ketoprofen in postoperative care and three out of four nefopam. Nefopam has been shown to be effective postoperatively (29) and to reduce opioid consumption when combined with an NSAID (30). NSAIDs should be the weapon of choice in postoperative prescriptions: they are effective postoperatively and reduce opioid consumption (31), but they also reduce the rate of fistulas after colorectal surgery (32,33) and shorten the time required to resume transit (34,35). However, as we have seen, there is still room for improvement to increase the prescription of NSAIDs during the postoperative in-hospital period in our department. In our study, in addition to the year of surgery, prior surgery was also found to represent a risk of opioid consumption. This is probably because the patient was exposed to opioids during their previous hospitalization and wishes to benefit from their analgesic effects again. Special attention should thus be paid to patients with a history of surgery, as can often be the case in endometriosis. Finally, although neither the digestive procedure performed nor on the severity of the disease impact postoperative opioid consumption, preoperative consumption has been shown to be a major factor in its use postoperatively (36). This is the main limitation of the study: we did not collect the patients' preoperative consumption habits and a future study will have to take this bias into account. Similarly, we did not collect data about the duration and type of analgesics used after hospitalization, which is important information regarding the risk of chronic opioid use. Finally, the retrospective nature of the data always represents a bias although we used a software dedicated to the prescription of analgesics allowing a comprehensive evaluation of drug consumption. Conclusion In conclusion, our study presents rare data on the immediate postoperative consumption of patients having undergone surgery for colorectal endometriosis. We were able to demonstrate that neither clinical characteristics nor intraoperative findings had an impact on opioid consumption in these patients. Furthermore, our study shows that it is possible to rapidly modify in-hospital analgesic consumption by significantly reducing opioid consumption in favor of NSAIDs or nefopam.

There was no difference in the ASRM score or the digestive procedure (rectal shaving, discoid, or segmental resection) between the robotic and conventional groups. Similarly, surgical procedures associated with colorectal resection did not differ between the groups except for a higher frequency of JJ stents use in the conventional group compared with the robotic group: 16% (12/73) versus 4.5% (4/89), p=0.011. Finally, the operating time was longer for the robotic group: 200 versus 251 minutes (p=0.003).

colorectal endometriosis. We observed that surgical procedure did not impact opioid consumption. However, during the period a shift in analgesic use was note with an increased consumption of anti-inflammatory drugs and nefopam while tramadol consumption was divided by 10 in 3 years. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the modalities of consumption of postoperative analgesics in a large cohort of women operated on for colorectal endometriosis. As previously described, this is a challenging setting because colorectal endometriosis represents the most severe form of endometriosis and is the source of the most severe postoperative complications (16,17). Our complication rate is in agreement with previous reports: 13% of Clavien-Dindo grade IIIA, 8% grade IIIB, and 5% of grade IV (18). This relatively high complication rate can be explained by the incidence of some surgical risk factors such as a high rate of colpectomy, temporary diverting stoma, intra-operative JJ stent use, and ureteral or bladder resection (19,20). Moreover, as previously published for bowel cancer surgery, the high incidence of drainage in our series was associated with a risk of postoperative complications underlining the need to avoid systematic drainage (21,22). In our study, the surgical approach \u0026ndash;robotic or conventional laparoscopy\u0026ndash; had no impact on the likelihood of being exposed to an opioid during hospitalization. However, in patients using tramadol preoperatively, robotic surgery increased the total amount consumed linked to longer postoperative use. Our results are partially in agreement with those of previous studies showing no difference in analgesic consumption between robotic vs conventional laparoscopy (9). However, our data contrast with the results of Mangalath et al (23) reporting lower analgesic use during the first postoperative 24 hours following robotic surgery. This apparent discrepancy can be explained by the limited sample size of Mangalath et al\u0026rsquo;s study which only included 24 patients in the robotic group, after exclusion of four, and 24 patients in the laparoscopic group, after exclusion of 37. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the surgical approach, postoperative analgesic consumption should be analyzed in the specific context of endometriosis. Time-to-diagnosis for patients with endometriosis can be as long as 12 years during which time they often experience considerable pain (1). They have often been subjected to medical wandering and multiple surgeries, and can suffer from anxiety and depressive disorders (24), all of which have a negative impact on social and familial relationships as well as causing stigma. This explains the high preoperative incidence of analgesic consumption in this population (25). Our data focus on the in-hospital postoperative period and only on drugs that were both prescribed and actually taken by the patients. The first 2 days after colorectal surgery are the most painful (26), and this therefore represents a crucial moment for analgesic consumption: the likelihood of chronic opioid use increases with each additional day of medication supplied starting with the third day after surgery (27). In our study, the average duration was 2.06 days (2.09) for morphine consumption and 3.22 (2.09) days for tramadol for a mean hospital stay of 1 week. This means that very few patients were using opioids by the end of their hospital stay, and that there is no need to prescribe them at discharge.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis study also showed that it was possible to radically change the prescription habits of all the practitioners working in our center. The example of tramadol is the most striking. Tramadol is a strong contributor to the risk of future opioid addiction (27) and was the first opioid analgesic cited in a 2018 survey of problematic use both among substance abusers and in the general population for pain management conducted by the French National Drug Safety Agency and published in February 2019 (28). Problematic use included dependence with signs of withdrawal occurring even when taken at recommended doses and over a short period of time, and leading to persistent intake by patients who no longer experience pain. The report highlighted that tramadol was also the first analgesic involved in deaths related to the use of analgesics, ahead of morphine. Following this report and recommendations to restrict the indications for tramadol prescription, we have been able to divide its consumption in our hospital by a factor of 10 in 3 years.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpioid treatments have been replaced by the non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) ketoprofen and nefopam. By 2021, two out of three patients were receiving ketoprofen in postoperative care and three out of four nefopam. Nefopam has been shown to be effective postoperatively (29) and to reduce opioid consumption when combined with an NSAID (30). NSAIDs should be the weapon of choice in postoperative prescriptions: they are effective postoperatively and reduce opioid consumption (31), but they also reduce the rate of fistulas after colorectal surgery (32,33) and shorten the time required to resume transit (34,35). However, as we have seen, there is still room for improvement to increase the prescription of NSAIDs during the postoperative in-hospital period in our department. In our study, in addition to the year of surgery, prior surgery was also found to represent a risk of opioid consumption. This is probably because the patient was exposed to opioids during their previous hospitalization and wishes to benefit from their analgesic effects again. Special attention should thus be paid to patients with a history of surgery, as can often be the case in endometriosis. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, although neither the digestive procedure performed nor on the severity of the disease impact postoperative opioid consumption, preoperative consumption has been shown to be a major factor in its use postoperatively (36). This is the main limitation of the study: we did not collect the patients\u0026apos; preoperative consumption habits and a future study will have to take this bias into account. Similarly, we did not collect data about the duration and type of analgesics used after hospitalization, which is important information regarding the risk of chronic opioid use. Finally, the retrospective nature of the data always represents a bias although we used a software dedicated to the prescription of analgesics allowing a comprehensive evaluation of drug consumption. \u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Conclusion ","content":"\u003cp\u003eIn conclusion, our study presents rare data on the immediate postoperative consumption of patients having undergone surgery for colorectal endometriosis. We were able to demonstrate that neither clinical characteristics nor intraoperative findings had an impact on opioid consumption in these patients. Furthermore, our study shows that it is possible to rapidly modify in-hospital analgesic consumption by significantly reducing opioid consumption in favor of NSAIDs or nefopam.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Declarations","content":"\u003cp\u003eFunding:\u0026nbsp;No funds, grants, or other support was received.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConflicts of interest: The authors have no relevant financial or non-financial interests to disclose.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsent to participate:\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/strong\u003eInformed consent was obtained from all individual participants included in the study\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor Contributions:\u0026nbsp;\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmine Bibaoune, Marjolaine Le Gac and Yohann Dabi participated in the data collection, Adrien Crestani carried out the statistics; Kamila Kolanska, Cl\u0026eacute;ment Ferrier and Sofiane Bendifallah participated in the writing of the article; Emile Darai validated the final version.

The type of procedure had an impact on acetaminophen and nefopam consumed per day: consumption for colorectal shaving, discoid resection and segmental resection was, respectively, 2(0.5), 2.1(0.6), 2.4(0.6) g/day (p\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;10\u0026thinsp;\u0026minus;\u0026thinsp;3), and 25(7), 30(14), 31(11) mg/day (p\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;0.03). The total amount of tramadol consumed was greater following robotic surgery compared with conventional laparoscopy (322(222) mg vs 242(292) mg, p\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;0.04). We observed a switch in analgesic consumption over the years: tramadol was used by 70% of patients in 2019 but only by 7.1% in 2021 (p\u0026thinsp;\u0026lt;\u0026thinsp;10\u0026thinsp;\u0026minus;\u0026thinsp;3); conversely, ketoprofen was not used in 2019, but was consumed by 57% of patients in 2021 (p\u0026thinsp;\u0026lt;\u0026thinsp;10\u0026thinsp;\u0026minus;\u0026thinsp;3).
